Background: In the present study, we sought to describe a procedure for the creation of co-registered positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) polar plots of cardiac PET/MRI examinations...
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a leading cause of death worldwide. It has been clinically classified into 1) ischemic from a primary coronary event (e.g., plaque rupture or thrombotic occlusion), 2) ischemic fro...
Purpose: Prevention of myocardial injury is essential during cardiac surgery. Both crystalloid and blood cardioplegia are popular methods for myocardial protection. Most experimental studies have been in favor of bloo...
Study objective involved comparison of two cardioplegic solutions: HTK-solution possessing high buffer capacity and a new ACH-solution with aminoacid buffer. Results revealed high cardioprotective efficiency during su...
Objective: The electrophysiological properties of the myocardium are extremely heterogeneous. Verification of new magnetocardiography (MCG) signs appears an important aspect for severity assessment of ischemic myocard...
